Well, I'm not yet fluent and have no degree or anything,
But I do know the more basic stuff, and have taught some to a friend of mine,
So I might be able to help a bit

If it interests you... In a few weeks once school starts we'll probably be opening up the new subforum. I'm expecting to take an online Japanese class, so maybe I can copy and paste my lessons to you guys? Hopefully that's not illegal sort of thing. Haha..... ... .... >.>But it will be the ultimate basic Japanese level so...Yeah. biggrin I'm excited to have built in homework help with this guild. Lol!

There's a free online learning site. You learn from a native speaker (or just a fluent speaker) while you help them your native language. I'll try to hunt down the link again and post it. I have a friend who's using the site to learn Italian.

[EDIT]
Here it is!

Once I have reliable internet I would be happy to help out but that won't start until school. I am sure you will find someone before that. We also (will be updating) the language forum in this guild. That way you can practice.

Best of Luck~!

I self-studied various things until iKnow.co.jp came about.
From what I've seen of Rosetta Stone, it's a lot alike, but free : P

The site's called smart.fm now, but the content didn't change.
Check it out ^^

Yeah?
I thought the pre-set was english, but maybe not : S
In that case, there should be a symbol of a blue globe somewhere at the very top;
Click it and choose "English"

Fer sure.
But I started online stuff before I could afford a teacher, so yeah ^^"
I actually want to take real lessons now, cause I'm starting to hit a plateau I think ^^"
I need more experience! xP

Serious > <
I think my Japanese is almost at par with my French,
but only cause I don't know many pure or mostly French people,
even with being in Montreal, Quebec (the only French province in Canada, if you didn't know)
So yeah, I think at a certain point, it's all about getting out there and applying what you know, which is still tough online.
